No, I'm pretty sure you asked last time some pics of it went up. It was spun & needed a new wing, fr bumper & a rear quarter (above wheel arch). I gather people got a lot of joy hearing about when Si span it.

Pretty sure it's dead now though. Edd sold it to some proper welsh boyo's that squealed away from his place like it was stolen.

It was/is a V6, not sure if it's still alive now, lad I sold it too was a right tool, tried to redline it on the test drive :mad:

Think Si had to put a quarter on it when he had it due to some black ice.

Sold for £650 with the tyres.

First i have heard or seen that car for years, thought it was scrapped when it was hit, never liked the cab's but always liked that one.

On a side note if they sold for £650 im well chuffed for what i got my 19"s for.

Seriously though, If someone bends there pride and joy, it annoys me when people get kicks from it:(

It was. petrol and TD's afaik. a black 3dr Volcane still looks good today. lol

I'm not feeling the rim choice on the Zed. :(

They were the run of the mill spoty model, but there was a 2.0 16v, arch extensions & GTi6 16v engine with a 5sp box. Pretty rare.

Serious? I'm not biased, but BBS LM's are the king of wheels really.

Just seen the extra pics of your mates 300, I do agree with you that the wheels are cool. Not the king for me though,but it's the colour of his car that doesn't pull it off. Looks too bling bling for me.

Funnily enmough he dropped the others as they were a bit blingy (aswell as high maintenance) for the newer ones.

We think they suit the colour better aswell, but he is planning a respray again soon as he is now fedup of the std nissan pearl white which is a bit out of date. The new Lexus supercar white is the choice I think.

Personally I think if they were all black, it would look ubertough.

TBH i prefer the old rims, but i prefer the spoke to go to the edge of the rim one reason i never went for the LM's and prefer the Ch's.
